“…In recent years, the structures of clay minerals have been modified for technological, environmental, and industrial processes. For example, surfactant loading, which turns clays into the so-called organo-clays, changes their character from hydrophilic to hydrophobic thus modifying the system coagulation state and aggregation of particles (Yamagata et al 2012;Huang et al 2017) and generating the reversal of the external surface electric charge (Bianchi et al 2013). In addition, the alterations brought about in the interlayer thickness protect the mineral structure from acid degradation (Madejová et al 2012).…”

“…MMT was introduced into polymeric matrixes to produce polymer–clay nanocomposites (PCN) in which silicate layers of nanoclay were dispersed at the molecular level randomly and homogeneously. Many investigations on polymer nanocomposites have been carried out due to their abilities, including enhancing mechanical and barrier properties rather than polymer composites containing traditional fillers. But the production of PCN with an acceptable level of clay layers dispersion within the polymer matrix is not accessible via physical mixing of polymer and clay particles .…”
